A note from the director:
The following is based on recent writing prompt/suggestion as follows:
Assignment: Take a good look around your home, including its nooks and crannies. Hunt around for an object that seems to you to suggest the possibility of an un-told story. Make up a story associated with this object.

1830 Tea Pot
Weeping Willows with gardens and homes inlaid on a blue and white traditional porcelain tea pot said to have been owned by Princess Wu who was a renowned practitioner of Chinese shamanic religious tradition. She was called upon by common folk and Emperors for advice and divination, her powers were beyond reproach. As you entered her dimly lit pillow covered home, she would serve tea from this very tea pot. The cup has been long lost, said to have been taken by pirates to divine the future. Those pirates mysteriously disappeared.
After drinking from this tea pot Princess Wu saw your past, present and future with precise accuracy and gently dispensed advice. It is said by the current owner that the tea pot still retains its magical powers.
Warning: use at your own peril, once the tea pot is used it will growl for water and shake for jasmine tea and insist that you give it a prominent altar for all to see.
Please call for a price; we are very selective in who will be its next owner
